Here's my problem:
I wrote a satirical political novel (myself, not with AI) and then I generated an audiobook using AI, read by a famous (infamous?) politician, because it cheekily works well.

I would love to distribute/sell this audiobook, but I can't: Many platforms (like Spotify) won't allow AI-generated voices without an LPF file created by ElevenLabs or Google Play Books. And there's no way for me to legitimately get that LPF file, because ElevenLabs & GPB have their own restrictions. They won't let me generate my audiobook in the voice of this politician, even if it's explicitly satirical.

So... I'm looking for a way to fake an LPF file that can fool Spotify. Does this exist? Anyone know how?

Thank you Lemmy!

Audiobook & Web Publication: Some LPF files are deployed as a zipped Readium Audiobook Format. Visit Readium for details.

Try create LPF file with other voice, rename to zip, unzip. If fail, try find out file format (different archive tool, magic byte header, gnu string tool, hexdump).

If zip, inspect unzipped, look for signature or similar (some zip have comment in metadata). If signature, probably need certificate from elevenlabs/google, not easy. Probably easier mislabel as human speaker and submit. Check legal consequence if worth for you.

If no signature, inspect unzipped, maybe use readium software (https://github.com/readium/awesome-readium), maybe readium drm (https://github.com/readium/readium-lcp-server, https://github.com/readium/lcp-specs https://github.com/readium/r2-lcp-swift https://github.com/readium/readium-lcp-client). From there see if/how can fake content. Zip again, submit. Trial and error, maybe work maybe not.

Why don't you release the book text only first, I would be interested to read. Maybe you can get some funds to sponsor a human reading it.

Do you somehow think that if you just fake the technical requirement for this .lpf file it will be smooth sailing?

What happens when this gets caught by an actual human being?

It's out!
